Innovations in Marine Cleaning: Modern Equipment and Techniques
The environment, and in particular our oceans, are under constant threat from pollution. In response, a number of innovations have emerged aimed at combating this problem. These encompass a wide range of new equipment and techniques for the efficient cleaning of our coastal waters.
Cleaning Coastal Waters with Innovation
Innovations in marine clean-up include the development of modern equipment and techniques that ensure effective debris removal. One example is the "Seabin", a simple but innovative device that is placed in harbour waters and automatically absorbs floating debris.
Modern Techniques for Port Water Cleanup
In terms of modern techniques, the use of remote-controlled underwater drones has become increasingly popular in port water clean-up. These devices, equipped with high-definition cameras, scour the seabed and collect debris, helping to preserve the ecological balance of ports.
Wetland and Inland Water Clean-up
Innovations in marine clean-up are not just limited to oceans and seas. Advanced filtration equipment and beneficial bacteria are also being used in the clean-up of marshes and inland waters to keep these important ecosystems free of pollutants.
Emergency and Beach Beaconing Actions
When a natural disaster or other unexpected event occurs, innovations in marine clean-up also include emergency response. Specialised equipment such as containment booms can be rapidly deployed to contain oil spills or other contaminants. In addition, the marking of beaches with modern marking systems allows for the delineation of affected areas for clean-up and protection.
Technology at the Service of Ecolmare
At Ecolmare, we pride ourselves on being at the forefront of these innovations. From our headquarters in Barcelonaand our delegations in Tarragona y MalagaWe have these new equipment and techniques to keep coastal waters clean and healthy.
At the end of the day, true innovation is the marriage of advanced technology with our dedication and commitment to the preservation of our seas and oceans. At Ecolmare, we constantly strive to improve our impact on the planet through innovations in marine cleaning, with ever more efficient techniques and equipment. All our decisions and actions are aimed at the same goal: A cleaner sea, for present and future generations.
